Conference Report "Something For Everyone" August 17, 2001

The annual conference was one of the largest conferences ever with over 338 of our colleagues attending from all over the world. There was literally “something for everyone” whether you were a dentist, a hygienist, a spouse or a young member of the family. Our lectures were full of useful information from esthetic restorative dentistry.  Removable prosthodontics, and practice administration, restorative dentistry, to implants and periodontics.  Many pearls were shared that will make our practices run smoother. We’re grateful for all that Gordon Christensen shared with us and his presence that helps to make the conference a great success. The Friday night dinner was excellent. We were treated to some special music from Amanda Nixon who reigned as Miss Utah 1995-96. Breton Yorgason, a renowned LDS author, was our guest speaker. He shared with us and our spouses some very important and helpful suggestions on developing our cherished marital relationships. His humor helped to deliver this timeless advice which is so needed in marriages today. It was well received by all attending. Our young family members were easy to spot this year in their lime green t-shirts as they returned from a full day of activities with their friendly chaperones. Friday’s luncheon was a special treat to hear the report of Rich and Alma Morris who just returned as full time missionaries from Lima, Peru. They had such a special experience setting up a new dental clinic at the dental school in Lima. Their report touched us all. Also visiting our conference was Gustavo Andrade who had organized a branch of the Academy of LDS Dentists in Lima.

Those who put so much effort into making this conference a great success are greatly appreciated.  We look forward to seeing all of you next year. The conference dates are August 16 and 17, 2002. Get these dates in you calendar and make plans to attend.
